With Anthony Davis spraining his ankle, the pressure was on LeBron James and Austin Reaves to carry the Los Angeles Lakers to a Christmas Day win over the Golden State Warriors. Things seemed to be in hand until Stephen Curry almost single-handedly brought the Warriors back, tying the game with a late 3-pointer with just seven seconds remaining.
But that was more than enough time left for Reaves, who would get to the rim and convert the game-winning layup with just one second left as the Lakers escaped with the victory. It was a great moment for Reaves, who will now always have that Christmas Day memory, but it turns out the play wasn’t even meant for him.
